Pufa depletion thread drop ur cures n shit
-
Something that happened to me, (and confused me at the time) was a recent experiment going nearly zero fat in an attempt to lose body fat. I must have released old stored pufa by going so low because I got an inflammation response after a few days and put 20lbs on! And I kid you not, that 20 lbs went on really really fast, (like a week/week and a half). I did not take Vitamin E while doing this very low fat experiment and I think the recirculated fat stores, (that after so long I would have assumed would be more pufa free) lowered my metabolism and on normal maintenance calories I gained significant weight. It was such an interesting experience honestly.

And one of the most important for PUFA depletion, coconut oil, for more than one reason.
Replacement oils to cook with, butter, ghee, palm kernel oil, deodorized coconut oil, beef and lamb tallow, etc etc.

@onliest Do you have to DNP down to 3% BF or just DNP 4 days/wk every other week for like 2 months? I'm at 15% BF atm and have pretty much cut out all PUFA.
-
@hwisdom it makes fat oxidation go turbo. If you are high in PUFAs it's probably the fastest way to nuke them, but be careful and DYOR if you choose to go this path.

You just need to titrate your dose and know the half life so you don't OD and start small because sources potency varies.
Oh and take Vitamin C so you don't get cataracts.

@MasterPeatler A beginner DNP cycle is 250mg-375mg for 2-3 weeks. 3% BF does not sound healthy. I wouldn't worry too much if you're already 15% BF, unless you wanted to run it for aesthetic purposes.
I eat a PUFA-rich meal maybe once every week or two, no issues. I think being too anal about health is counterproductive.

@MasterPeatler Cataracts pretty much only affect women. If you get peripheral neuropathy, stop immediately. Yes, antioxidants like vit C+E, NAC, are recommended. Also, aspirin and niacinamide to prevent excessive lipolysis.
-
@onliest This is the way.
My stuff is weak though so I frontload 800mg then dose based on the amount of heat I like which is around 6 and 500mg for the next few days.
-
@MasterPeatler I'm at the end of my first cycle. Did 250mg for a week and then 375mg.
The weight fluctuations are crazy, like 7 lbs in a day. Excited to see the results 5-7 days when I shed the water I've been holding.

On twitter, @haidut mentioned using vitamin K3 as a safer version of DNP to drop some weight. (This was back around ~Mar 15 2023.)
In one of the reply streams, someone posted a link to this product:

I am not aware of a US source. I would love to find one and give it a try.
